There’s just something about how Rick Riordan explores each of his characters’ past in the Magnus Chase books and how each character learns to deal with it. Magnus coming to terms with his mother’s death and honoring her with the love he feels for his friends. Biltzen’s honoring of his father by winning the crafting duel while following his passion. Mallory confronting the mother she felt abandoned by and how she feels about Frigg’s attempts to be a part of her life. Alex’s relationship with his grandfather and his craft that rejects everything his father stands for. Sam’s faith allowing her to find the strength to resist Loki. Hearthstone’s relationship with his brother and his brother’s love for him as the final rejection of his father’s abuse. Halfborn coming to terms with the home he never returned to. The history of slavery that continues to weigh on TJ, but that he triumphs by his pure existence whereas the confederates literally fade away.

Magnus, from inside his room: I love you so much...
TJ, walking past the room in the hallway: Guys! You have to listen to this
Halfborn, ear to the door: Oh my gods, is he talking to Alex?
Sam: I don't know if we should be intruding on their special moment...
Mallory, opening the door: I need a video of this-
Alex, walking in from another hallway: Oh, are we spying on Magnus again?
*the team opens the door to find Magnus talking to falafel*
